This webinar will present findings from research on children’s experiences and perspectives regarding contact with their father in the context of post-separation intimate partner violence (IPV). We will begin by highlighting the importance of considering children’s views when making decisions about contact with their father and by identifying factors that support their meaningful participation. The webinar will also examine the conditions that help children feel safe and at ease in these situations. Finally, it will explore avenues for supporting a reparation process for children who have been exposed to IPV.
By attending this Webinar, participants will be better able to:
- Identify factors that promote children's participation in decision-making regarding contact with their father
- Identify, from the children's perspective, conditions that help them feel safe and comfortable during contact with their father
- Explore ways to support a healing process for children who have experienced domestic violence
